Last week I stated that the Garmin was authorized in all US Complete Trials - Open and Amateur Stakes. This was based on the American Field's authorization and not having seen anything official from the AFTCA prohibiting its use. This is not entirely true. After conferring with Linda Hunt, AFTCA Secretary, the AFTCA has NOT approved its use in trials held by its member clubs. A noticefrom the AFTCA will be published in the American
Field shortly.
What does this mean to US Complete Trials?
1. The Garmin DC-30 is approved for use in Open Stakes for the trial period specified by the American Field.
2. The Garmin DC-30 is NOT approved for use in Amateur Stakes conducted by clubs that are members of the AFTCA.
3. The Garmin DC-30 may be used in any stakes conducted by USCSDA Clubs that are not members of the AFTCA, for the trial period specified by the American Field.
4. The Garmin DC-30 is NOT approved for use in the USCSDA National Amateur Championship, since this is an AFTCA sanctioned trial.
Sorry for any inconvience. Hopefully this clears up any confusion.
Jim Bush USCSDA President
